As you continue to grow as a social worker, it is important that you stay in the habit of reflecting on your experiences and professional practice. This reflective journal assignment gives you an opportunity to examine your clinical work through the lens of what you have learned in this module. Write your reflective journal in response to the prompt below.
Reflection Prompt
Consider the topic of sin and repentance and present a circumstance in which you had to personally grapple with either your own “sinful” actions, ones which may have affected a friend or loved one, or an action of a friend or loved one that negatively impacted you. Discuss the process of self-reflection you used in understanding these actions, how you or the other individual repented or asked for forgiveness, and how it felt to go through the process. Was there resolution? Was the resolution satisfactory? After reading the articles in this module, would you approach this or future situations differently?
